The following is an announcement placed by Mike Leadbitter in the British monthly R&B Scene ( July 1965, p.16).
It is accompanied by a cropped copy of the above Peacock publicity photo.
To the best of my knowledge despite this, and similar coverage in Blues Unlimited, Mike's ambitions for Price was a non-starter but I'd happily stand corrected.
